Back In Business

﻿

After the big freeze and spending all of Christmas suffering from a perforated eardrum (which saw me spend three hours in A&E on Christmas Day) I am now happy to be returning to some sense of normality. I can't wait to get back on the bank in pursuit of "The Common".

I've pondered that what I'd really like to be doing is getting back to a more traditional form of angling and sometimes I long to get the cane rods back out.....but...I know deep down that I just have to catch this fish. It's under my skin and I'm up for the challenge.

I'd also like to thank the fine fellows at﻿ Bedfordshire Specimen Anglers (soon to be British Specimen Anglers), for sending me the rather fetching hat (above). Check out the site, it's well worth a look.

Thats a great hat, Mind you i like anything with a kingfisher on it, I will look at the site in more depth a little later on, Hope you are feeling better after your damaged ear drum, I am deaf in both ears so i can sympathise with you,Hope the new hat brings you some good luck with the monster fish,Regards,,,,Paddy,,,
